Analysis
The teams last met in a Vitality Blast game on 14 June at the Oval. Batting first Glamorgan began reasonably well with an opening stand of 47 in 4.2 overs. But a flurry of wickets left them floundering at 68 for 3, before a mini recovery via a 4th wicket stand of 36 runs. After Chris Cooke got out with the score reading 104 for 4, Marnus Labuschagne was involved in a 5th wicket stand of 52 with Kiran Carlson. But a loss of three more wickets prevented Glamorgan from adding too many more runs in the remaining overs after reaching 156/5 in 18 overs. In the event, they were restricted to 166/8 in their allotted 20 overs. Labuschagne top scored with 74 off 51 balls, while opener Nick Selman made 43 from 28 balls, and Kiran Carlson scored 23 from 13.

But after a mini middle-order collapse reduced them to 101 for 4 in 10.3 overs, Surrey recovered somewhat with a 38-runs stand for the 5th wicket. At 139 for 5 in 15.2 overs, they were well placed to scale the target, which they eventually did, with 5 wickets and 8 balls to spare.
